Cypripedium montanum x pubescens
Cypripedium Columbianum is the artificial remake of an also
naturally occuring hybrid. This elegant cross captivates the eye by its striking flower coloration and shape as well as the slender growth of its shoots. Everything reminds strongly about the wild species Cypripedium montanum from North America. Cypripedium Columbianum forms many flowers, often two per stem and bigger than Cyp. Sebastian. He grows up to 55 cm (22 in) high and flowers in the second half of May. A similar coloration shows the cross Ingrid.
Columbianum is not quite as robust and tolerant as the other Frosch® hybrids. Good drainage is especially important for it.
Height: 45-55 cm
Blooming time: May
